1. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity — though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of (I don’t generally follow the Dead Pool threads carefully, so if you’re unsure of your pick, call it to my attention).

2. We start from scratch every time. No matter who you had last time, or who you may have called between rounds, you have to turn up on this very thread and stake your claim.

3. Poaching and other dirty tricks positively encouraged.

4. Your first choice sticks. Don’t just blurt something out, m’kay?

5. It’s up to you to search the thread and make sure your choice is unique. I’m waayyyy too lazy to catch the dupes. Popular picks go fast.

6. The pool stays open until somebody on the list dies. Feel free to jump in any time. Noobs, strangers, drive-bys and one-comment-wonders — all are welcome.

7. If you want your fabulous prize, you have to entrust me with a mailing address. If you don’t want the fabulous prize, you’re too smart to be a regular. It takes me forever to put them in the mail, packages go by slow boat, typically take minimum eight to ten weeks and lose the will to live along the way.

8. The new DeadPool will begin 6pm WBT (Weasel’s Blog Time) the Friday after the last round is concluded.

1) He is too dumb for Darwin to overlook him much longer, and 2) for both being funded by his Democrat opponent and giving Obama a. the Senate seat he claims he is “running for”, b. perhaps giving Obama control of the Senate, and c. perhaps giving Obama the presidency for life.

Wow, MrCaniac…I thought Nabors died ages ago, but you’re right. Still with us.

I had no idea his poncey name was James Thurston Nabors. That don’t sound right.

Right. And it would be spun as “the poor Kennedys” — nothing is ever their fault.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends and fellow pursuiants of dick…(that didn’t ‘zactly come out just the way I expected – oh, well)

Insaney Janey Fonda for the winnn-n-n!!!, preferably by meltinnn-n-ng – ’cause even the Wicked Bitch of the Left Coast has gotta go sometime, and why not now, say I?

Here’s hoping, BTW, that 16920502 does not pull off a twofer – Jim Garner may be gettin’ kind creaky and gimpy (as who ain’t these days?), but he’s aways been a class act as well as a pretty classy actor, and I’d like to see him stick around for awhile just yet.

I knew this would happen. I’m off at the crack of dawn to drive my daughter to college so I’m out of pocket all day. I just checked into the hotel in Tallahassee, fire up the free wireless in my delightful Wyndham suite only to find AltBBrown poached My man Moon….and the first pick to boot!
OK Brown….if you win the dick because Moon bites the biscuit I hope you have the decency to share.
I pick the low hanging fruit….Olivia De Havilland

Can’t believe Mickey Rooney is still above room temperature. Just think, Judy Garland left us 43 years ago, when I was but a lad. He was first paired with her in film in 1937, 75 years ago!

And let’s throw in that processed hair media Whore…Al “Relaxed Weave” Sharpton…who truly is a dick.

No one has taken Leftist Stalwart Disinformation Minister Comrade Sam Donaldson, surprisingly enough. His toupee is made from the same coon skin that Davie Crockett was killed whilst wearing, at the Alamo.

John David Dingell, Jr., Representative for Michigan’s 15th congressional district, emblem of corrupt and stupid Detroit, canker sore of union cancer, eating away at productive America. In Congress since 1955, it’s time you pushed up daisies, you old gasbag. You’re not even worthy of mockery any longer. Useless. Stupid. Carcass.

Is Olivia De Havilland really still living on Sunset Blvd? One of the greatest movies ever. That and “Body Heat” are my two favorite films I think… Well maybe “The Lion in Winter” might bump one of them… or “The Big Chill”. That last sings to my generation, but I suspect it may not work for younger people.

Sorry about that, Pat. I found your entry in the spam bucket (lord knows why) and kicked it loose, but since things have moved on from there, I deleted it again.

Speaking of the spam bucket, there’s something a bit creepy about this one:

I together with my friends came looking at the excellent tactics found on your website and so all of the sudden got an awful suspicion I had not thanked the site owner for those strategies. Most of the young boys had been totally happy to learn them and have sincerely been enjoying those things. Appreciation for actually being really thoughtful and then for choosing varieties of exceptional subject matter most people are really desperate to be informed on. My very own sincere regret for not expressing appreciation to you earlier.

Ramsey Clark, POS commie bastard is drawing air a better person could use. Stop respirating you dissicated old rat.

“Uncle Joe Biden…during his “visit” to the RNC in Tampa…by a faux-tea-partier (read:Obama operative)…how’s that for a conspiracy theory?”

Rustbucket got him first, so I think that it’s against the rules to call Biden, onstage during his speech in Charlotte, nevermind that it makes me feel creepy to say so.

It’s just that I’ve been contemplating just how much more of a Chinese clusterfuck the Donks’ convention can become, and I think that this would make a huge one. Sherriff Joe’s primary value to the Dims at this point is as a martyr.
